friendly0603 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 That's the mystery. Even Jesus was executed as an innocent personDon't see the relevance of this reply. Jesus was supposed to be executed to fulfill the prophecy. Quote Link to comment

SaintPeter5858 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Don't see the relevance of this reply. Jesus was supposed to be executed to fulfill the prophecy. That's the paradox of reading the Bible based on personal interpretation. The best way so far is historical-critical method popularized by Raymond Brown. Prophecy? What about Christ's free will? He could have refused the "cup" if he wanted to. Quote Link to comment

Are you assuming this? Is your best way recommended by Catholics/Christians?If Christ wanted to use his free will, then we wouldn't have catholicism/christianity or your namesake? He has eternal life, and he will resurrect himself anyway. I don't really get it. Quote Link to comment
laging_nagmamahal Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I believe that all prayers are answered. Minsan nga lang, we're too busy to even hear His reply. Minsan din, we don't get the answer we expect. But, an answer is an answer, right? Quote Link to comment

SaintPeter5858 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 99% God hears my prayers. 1% He says "wait" to test my patience Quote Link to comment
moodywriter Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Yes, He does. He just chooses when and how to answer, and which prayers He will indulge. Sometimes, He just gives it to me as how I asked for it. When I was younger, I asked for someone to love who would love me back even if I would end up getting hurt. He did give me such person and I did end up getting hurt. Quote Link to comment
SUICIDAL333 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Yes of course, God always answers my prayers in a wiser way. Quote Link to comment

I respect your opinion Master. Everybody has his own option when it comes to prayers. My prayers, for example, are always based on my experiences of God's omnipotence and omniscience.

girlspankee Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Yes. They may be delayed at times and not always how I expected Him to but He definitely does. Quote Link to comment
moodywriter Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Why did you include the condition "even if I would end up getting hurt"? Just curious It was my way of bargaining with God so that He would give me what I thought I wanted. It was like asking a favor from a friend and promising to do something in return. He recently answered my prayer. And He does have a sense of humor. He gave me someone I didn't really expect and He added a few challenges for good measure. Quote Link to comment
